"I do", he said, "I feel like it's my duty to commit myself to you.
I'll take responsibility, and put my life aside to pull us through."

"My dear", he said, "I'm sorry. Many men've already fallen. I must leave.
Remember to be faithful, I will probably be home on Christmas eve.

Dearly beloved, we've gathered here today to celebrate
The grief of his mother, will be all that has remained over the days.
All is fair in love and war, when duty means you die.
We honor the(e), men who are free of mind.

I'm cold he said, I feel like I've been shot into my eyes , I cannot see
I want to wrap my arms around my friends and family
The blood I spill called service, gushing out it makes me nervous is this all
My life already flashed before my eyes so it is over when I fall

Dearly beloved, we've gathered here today to celebrate
The birth of his daughter, who grows up without a father I'm afraid
All is fair in love and war, when duty means you die.
We honor the(e), men who are free of mind.

It takes a strong man to decide, that the path you planned is not always the right
If you're a man, admit that you've been wrong!
For greater good, you must obey. Live by the rules and throw your conscious life away
No turning back from that you have become

You've swum too far from the shore, now you can't return
You gave your life for the war, now you can't return(6x)
Will you love and cherish him till death do you part I'm just asking.
Will you be there at his side in good times and in mortar fire.

Dearly beloved, we've gathered here today to celebrate
The death of another, no need to grieve about each other's fate
All is fair in love and war, when duty means you die.
We honor the(e), men who are free of mind.
